Especially when the leader, Cao Mingjin, rushed forward, his whole face was smashed by a lead bullet, and he was already dead! Without the leader, they would not dare to move forward!
Moreover, the servants blocking the entrance to the main hall took the opportunity to quickly change positions, and the servants who retreated were not idle either. They picked up the short muskets on the ground and began to reload them! The people in the front row were on guard with short muskets in hand, and it looked like they couldn't rush forward!
Coincidentally, at this time, the sound of firecrackers and fighting outside suddenly became louder, and the distance became closer and closer! This means that reinforcements from outside are about to arrive! This makes these people even more confused!
Just when they were hesitating, the courtyard door was suddenly knocked open, and two people supporting each other fell into the courtyard! One of them fell there and spread his arms and legs, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. The other man lay on the ground and managed to hold himself up and shouted: "Nanya, the people from Nanya have gathered together with the Wu'an Army. They are strangulating the brothers." ! Brothers, hurry up..."
This man fell to the ground before he finished speaking, not knowing whether he was alive or dead! Only then did everyone see that the two men were covered in blood, and they must have tried their best to rush in to report the news! This made everyone regret it even more! Because they really didn't expect that Liu Haojia would dare to do something serious and just start killing people!
When they were preparing to cause trouble, they didn't intend to make it too big! Because the commotion was too big, they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to keep their position! After all, the crime of disobedience to a superior official cannot be tolerated by the government of any dynasty! So they didn't prepare the corresponding weapons and armor at all! All they used to fight was the Xiuchun knife they carried with them!
However, Xiuchundao was used more for etiquette than actual combat. So these people in the yard were suppressed by several servants with short blunderbuss! If they have long spears, halberds, heavy shields and thick knives, it is not impossible for them to charge forward with short blunderbuss! But in this current situation, everyone present is in a state of panic!
Just when they were still hesitating, there was a burst of dense footsteps! Then a group of people swarmed in from outside! These Jin Yiwei who rushed in were different. All of them were wearing battle armor. Holding a wooden shield and single sword! As soon as they entered the door, they first surrounded the people standing under the steps holding weapons. And connected the shields to form a shield wall to wrap them tightly!
The people who rushed in from behind began to drive away those who had not drawn their weapons and were standing aside to watch the excitement, forcing them to stand against the wall. Then another group of military policemen rushed in holding firecrackers. They formed a line of defense directly in front of the main hall door and pointed the firecrackers at the surrounded people.
At this time, the people surrounded were all ashen-faced and trembling all over! They know that things will definitely not be good today! The only thing they can think about now is that Liu Haojia will not implicate the family! But they also know that there is little hope in this matter!
At this time, there was a clang, and the Xiuchun knife in someone's hand fell to the ground. Then there was a sound of the sword falling to the ground! These people felt that the matter was hopeless, so they simply surrendered!
Immediately afterwards, someone entered the encirclement and picked out all the weapons. The remaining people swarmed up, pushed all these people to their knees, and tied them up one by one! This time the turmoil has completely subsided!
Only when the yard was completely safe did the servants in front of the door step aside. Liu Haojia was shown sitting upright on the tiger-skin chair with a frustrated look on his face! It stands to reason that there should not be something like a tiger-skin chair in a yamen that only appears in a copycat village! But Liu Shou was good at it, so he sent someone to get a good tiger skin and spread it on the chair.
In fact, Liu Haojia had no intention of carrying out a large-scale purge, but things did not develop according to his ideas! He thought that after taking office today, he would first stabilize everyone, and in a few months, he would pick out a few Liu Shouyou's confidants to deal with, and slowly build up his prestige.
To this end, he also specially checked the files of Nanzhen Fusi to compile a list. There is no one else in the South Town Fusi, but there are countless dirty materials about officers at all levels in the North Town Fusi! In the past, when Fusi in South Town was weak, they did not dare to interfere with Fusi's affairs in North Town, but this did not prevent them from keeping the evidence to use when preparing for a comeback in the future. Now they are waiting for Liu Haojia, and this information is finally put to use!
This time Liu Haojia secretly arranged for the people and military police from South Town Fusi to ambush around North Town Fusi in case they made trouble, so that they could go in and suppress them, and then take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the list to name people one by one! But what he didn't expect was that he
But they underestimated these people's greed for power. They actually formed a group to oppose and wanted to cause trouble! It was actually able to induce the ambushers to shoot first, so he simply issued an order to counter the rebellion!
When the fireworks signals exploded in the sky, everyone in Nanzhen Fusi was blinded! They are still thinking about why this signal is different from what they said before? Fortunately, the officer commanding the military police, Liu Zhou, was staying with Gu Changhong and others. When he saw that it was a signal to counter the rebellion, he almost laughed out loud!
He was one of the first children adopted by Liu Haojia to start working! But because he was cautious and careful in his work, Liu Haojia always kept him here in the capital! Just stay until now!
For so many years, what he did every day was to train soldiers, collect taxes, and then send the well-trained soldiers to the Wu'an Army, and then accept new soldiers and start from scratch! He already felt that he had become a full-time official in the Wu'an Army military police recruitment and training!
Now that he finally had the opportunity to make a meritorious service, he was already a little discouraged by just suppressing him! But now that suppression has turned into counterinsurgency, his spirits are rising immediately! Counterinsurgency and suppression do similar things, but the credit is different!
So he was the first to react. His young master had now issued an order to counter the rebellion. When he thought about the faint sound of fire and gunfire just now, didn't it mean that it was very dangerous inside! So he immediately fired his short musket and shouted loudly: "Come in! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
He gave the order, and his military police officers rushed out first! But Gu Changhong was shocked when he heard what he said! He grabbed him and tried to run out. Liu Zhou shouted loudly: "What's going on? Don't you mean suppression? The signal is wrong too!"
Liu Zhou shook off Gu Changhong's arm and ran while shouting: "The signal my second young master just sent was a counter-insurgency signal! Something big must have happened inside, tell your people to follow him quickly!"
Ding Li's eyes widened when he heard this! Counterinsurgency requires fighting! So he hurriedly said: "Brother Gu, what should we do?"
Gu Changhong stomped his feet bitterly and said, "What else can we do? We have already boarded the Marquis' ship, is there still a chance to get off? Hurry up and do it!"
